Ultimately when you mail something there is no way to prove what you mailed. You can mail a brick and say it was a camera or you can mail a camera and the buyer can say it was a brick. There’s an opportunity here for companies with big real

Yes, but I think that the majority of alcohol is consumed by addicts. I have a few 750mL bottles of liquor that I use to make a drink for myself once or twice a week. My alcoholic childhood friend has drunk an entire handle of liquor (1.75L

Employee panopticons only work if you want your employees to perform a precisely defined task with no improvisation. As soon as you watch someone their creativity drops to ~0.

You’re coming at this from a theoretical approach, which isn’t appropriate for deep learning because nobody has any idea how or why these neural networks actually work. Generating a bunch of rotated and stretched versions of your labeled im

Come again? The drag is proportional to the lift, but if you’re flying higher, and thus faster, to get the same lift, you’re getting to your destination faster.

60 million people are forcing 63 million people to support (pay taxes to) a government they don’t agree with. This is just how governance works.

No, having a kid who you've never bothered to socialize because using the iPad is easier is damaging their brains. My kids are much more disruptive at adult social events than their iPad-addled peers, but 100x better-behaved than those

Once you have the slightest desire to avoid Amazon you notice how easy it is. I order a ton of stuff from walmart.com and the only difference is it takes a couple more days to arrive.

It’s been obvious for years that the kids who are sitting silently through 3 hour weddings glued to their iPads are not developing any of the skills like creating fun, making friends, or being disciplined on proper conduct. It’s great for t

Some of these consumer startups should be financed and built like a movie, not a company. Use off the shelf tooling, experienced staff, and expect the thing to die off in revenues over a couple of years with some residual revenues in mainte

Criminals tend to be poor because the types of things defined as crimes have poor risk reward profiles and only make sense if you’re poor. Fraudulently advertising OxyContin and causing a drug epidemic that kills half a million people doesn

I’m talking about directly under the trunk. So the mass of the entire trunk plus the mass of all the organisms in the soil as far down as you go. The mass in a column of krill (of course over much more vertical distance... miles, not hundre

The largest total biomass per square meter of Earth’s area is in Antarctic krill explosions fueled by nutrient upwelling in the Southern Ocean. It’s more biomass per cross sectional area than even the land directly under a redwood tree.

That’s because (legal) immigrants have high social capital (education, values, two parent households) and often migrate to places where they have the highest relationship capital (hence the CountryVille neighborhoods like Koreatown or the U

You’d never take a team wide metric like cycle time (which is a function of the whole company) and use it to evaluate a single person. There shouldn’t be any benefit to an individual to have a low cycle time.

Sure it’s possible but the opposite is also possible and politicians shouldn’t be trying to figure this out. There clearly isn’t some major harm to the world being caused by two different power standards. I can say that I personally vastly
